Draft Grade — Packers
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Packers won the night they stopped Ponds from sliding. Grade: B.

The Packers spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: D'Angelo Ponds, the No. 47 name on the board, in the 120th pick. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Kayden McDonald
They will replay Kayden McDonald at the Round 2 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick84 Rnd3 Keith Abney II
Keith Abney II at pick No. 84 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick120 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds in Round 4, Pick 20 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick201 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
Steal is underselling it; Keagen Trost at No. 201 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick236 Rnd7 Noah Whittington
They let Noah Whittington come to them and pounced at the 236th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255 Rnd7 Cole Payton
Cole Payton is a better player than pick 255 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
